For Aspiring Leaders and Business, Operation & Project Managers

Do you dream of managing a startup through growth and iteration? Or, do you want to manage a project or lead a team through a new product or service launch in a large company? In the Management for Startups program, you will learn how to manage company operations, finances, and human resources to help validate a business idea that will iterate and evolve.

Each module takes the foundations learned in the core course, Innovation & Business Ideation, and puts a real-life lens on operations, financial management, and communications to develop a business or new product or service idea. You will acquire a deep understanding of what it takes to make a new venture succeed. Through the process, you will learn how to get the right people on board, communicate your vision, set and assess KPI’s, evaluate, and control risks.
